I love that this thread has become one of my favourites. Bring down the counterfeiters!

$100 is a hell of a markup. The $20 price I gave is retail price on taobao here in China, and honestly the ones you can get on taobao at that price might be a bit nicer though pretty similar (newer Adidas style etc.).

Don't know how many times they're changing hands from the factory to the Lids store, but there are pretty huge margins being packed on in the process.

The jerseys seem to be sent to the company “Headgear Classics” where they have their patch onto it and send it off to Lids.

I would guess everything they're selling is the same. Probably making very good money on it if they've managed the sourcing process well.

Edit: haha, their actual website storefront is now unavailable...

Solid customer service.

I could barely tell that their response was cut and paste.

Contact the IP holder and maybe a TV station with your information (if you're feeling mischievous) and let them take care of it.

I can't wait for CTV to cover the Mounties' disposal of these fake goods at some landfill somewhere.
